I'm new to MQ and a few things are confusing me...
I have MQServer on Windows 2003 server and a MQClient on an XP box. I have created the domain mqm group as instructed.
If I log into the XP box as the "local" administrator I can't connect. If I login as domain\administrator I can. OK I understand that, the admin account I added to the group is the domain\admin and only he can connect.
Right, can I have an MQServer not using a domain so that users not in the domain can connect?
Next I created a Linux MQ Server and tried to connect the Windows MQ Manager. Not got access.
I created an "administrator" user under Linux and added to the Linux groups I created as instructed. No access.
My question therefore is, when you connect from a Windows Client to a Unix/Linux server what format are the user account names that have to be created? What gets passed from Windows to Linux?
thanks

Your username on windows has the format:
domain\userid
This userid will need to be created on Unix/Linux in a group xxx.
You can use setmqaut to set the authorizations on unix and use -p userid. Know however that the authorizations are stored at group level xxx (primary group of user userid).
If the group already has rights to the qmgr than adding the user userid to this group will award him the same group rights (need not be the primary group for the user).
Now for your client connection from XP to Linux.
Make sure the userid you are running on has the right group rights to the qmgr on Linux. Than you should have no problems.
If you still get any error, post the rc code and the reason code.
Enjoy |

Can I just confirm that I create under Linux a user login in the form
domain\username
I also used the Redhat User Manager to create the mqm group, do I still need to the the command line MQ tool as well?
Cliff
I'm not a Unix guy and at the moment I can see why, my Redhat 7.3 installation won't give me a backslash to create the damn login!! Linux people wonder why people buy Windows, need they ask! |

Try using two backslashes 'domain\\userid'.
But actually, you don't need the domain part at all, likely.
So try it without it first and see.

You must create the windows user without domain on linux. Make sure, the name is not longer than 12 chars ( administrator s too long ).
It is not nessessary, that the user can login, this user is only used to check if he exists and if he has the authority to use the objects in mqm.
